morph, i got the suncore on order and it's on its way here. in the meantime, can you tell me how you bypass the warning message? from what i've read and researched, many have used bmw scanner v1.4 to do this... thanks.

Some have used the scanner to basically remove the self level option from the spec of the car.

Some have used the provided bypass tool.

I used the tool, followed the instructions they provided. Took 2 tries to get it done right.
But now it doesn't have a message any more.

I'll be honest, if I did it again, I wouldn't even bother erasing the message. I'd live with it. Not a big deal..

PA Soft 1.4 should work fine with a 2006 X5. Not sure what the issue might be but it should work with the same settings as your 2002

I put the front struts in. Still have bags in the rear. I have the sports pkg and the old suspension was stiff and rode very harsh. Just changing the fronts have made the ride so much better. Much softer. At this point, I may not swap out the rear bags and just go with this set up for now. Thanks Morph and all.

not sure if you're asking me or morph. if you're referring to morph, i believe he said the car sat somewhere in the middle of where the air ride setting used to be. i bought the front struts and rear springs and i only installed the front struts and have not converted the back air springs yet. after installing the front struts, the ride height has not changed or noticeable. i dont expect this to change after i put the rear springs in.

I've seen pics. So will answer for Morph. Car stance is amazing. I would say factory middle setting on the 4.8is, maybe a tad lower, but not really noticeable.
